Stable, mobile, dark-in-bright, dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate soliton

Abstract

We demonstrate robust, stable, mobile, quasi-one-dimensional, dark-in-bright dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) soliton with a notch in the central plane formed due to dipolar interaction for repulsive contact interaction. At medium velocity the head on collision of two such solitons is found to be quasi elastic with practically no deformation. A proposal for creating dipolar dark-in-bright solitons in laboratories by phase imprinting is also discussed. A rich variety of such solitons can be formed in dipolar binary BEC, where one can have a dark-in-bright soliton coupled to a bright soliton or two coupled dark-in-bright solitons. The findings are illustrated using numerical simulation in three spatial dimensions employing realistic interaction parameters for a dipolar 164Dy BEC and a binary 164Dy-162Dy BEC.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1401.318
